Help on How To Create a Distorted Waving/Oscillating Texture in a Material [Solved!]

Hm, my solution is probably very simple but it does come really close to what you want to achieve and can give you some ideas. I used a wavy texture (check screenshot) that is blurred and tileable to manipulate the uv space of a checkerbox texture. So if you make the wave texture to be big enough you will get the wavy motion on the texture (in your case, the normal map).

Thanks for offering help NasteX, but I finally got the shadertoy shader to work. Turns out I missed one line of code!
